'St. Elsewhere'

NBC

Shown with producer Bruce Paltrow, St. Eligius hospital ended its televised life in a manner that still confounds fans today. After transitioning to a shot of one of the "doctors" coming home in construction clothes, the series ends on a shot of a snow globe held by autistic child Tommy Westphall. Containing a tiny replica of the hospital, some have argued this points to the entire series existing only in the child's imagination.
